Only those people on the LTO List may apply.
The board then placed people into positions based on seniority.No interviews were conducted. Principals then contacted people to let them know which position they were placed into.

August

(Second round)

During the second round, any left-over jobs from the first round, plus any partial LTO’s under 0.6 or new LTOs are posted. These jobs were open to anyone on the OT Roster to apply for, however, if there is anyone left on the LTO List they were given first priority and are placed by seniority into their positions.
Once there is no one left on the LTO List, OT Roster candidates are interviewed and accepted for positions.
